Despite having the original The Time line-up, it ain' no Purple Rain, but more watchable that Under The Cherry Moon

Oh heeeeelllll no lol
I can watch UTCM all the time

I tried I swear I tried to watch Graffiti Bridge more than once, I just did not enjoy it all

If Graffiti Bridge did not contain 2 of his best songs I would not like it as much.

Joy in Repetition and The Question of U are among his best songs.

As an album I have not listened to it for more then 10 years. I think his last 3 albums are better (as a whole).

Did anyone here see the original version of this film that they showed to a test audience? The one before a lot of scenes were cut out. I'm only aware of a couple of the deleted scenes from that version of the film and would love to know if anyone can remember other scenes.

You see some of the scenes that weren't in the movie in the trailer such as Prince in a white outfit performing 'Can't stop this feeling I got' and a very short clip of Ingrid saying 'Naughty Boy' (presumably in the same scene that notoriously got cut out of Prince having a five knuckle shuffle under the bed sheets).

Yes, the movie was brutal. Couple of great tracks from the album though.

Joy in Repetition is not a Graffiti Bridge song..not to many fans. It is a Crystal Ball song that we had been listening to sincea around '87. It's like the Black Album and it's an '87 albums as well and not a '94 one.

I'm sure that there was The Latest Fashion being performed by the Time. I also remember the Can't stop this feeling and the Hangman scene, there is also Prince at at piano performing the Question of U.

It is still cool to dissect the movie, the behind the scenes stuff, the music and such

Morris never got this far with Apollonia

I'm confused. Are these scenes from an episode of Law & Order SVU?

Next to Tommy Wiseau's "The Room"? I'll let the forum decide that one.

There is also the "hangman scene" which was edited out of the film

Hee hee... I'm having a hard time resisting the urge to put a cartoon think bubble on there that says, "Prick."

Regerding all the deleted/unused scenes - would that be in the vault or would WB own it??

I remember seeing the previews for GB and getting excited to see it in theaters. After the viewing kinda left me with WTF did I just watch? Decided to get the DVD last year just to have it, I have watched it twice since then. There are some funny parts in it, however most of it is pretty bad. One of my favorite Prince lines in the movie:

"Morris, whatcha doing man as if I don't know, hehehehehe" lmao!!

It would make more sense that Warners Bros. would have control of the unused/deleted scenes footage.

I would like to see all of the usable footage put in the hands of a professional.

Ok,I admit....this scene was sorta funny

I would assume that Warners owns it

HAA

i think my favorite scene in Graffiti Bridge was when Prince walks up to Fred and says "hey man this is my world!" lol! the look on Freds face was priceless

Alright ....FIRST you watch the movie '3 chains of gold' AND THEN you watch Graffiti Bridge ... it will change your opinion on the latter ...

I watched the former several times (when I had it on VHS format), and it's way less cringe-worthy than GB, which is an irredeemable mess.

Could someone take this on? Get their hands on the deleted/unused scenes? Reinsert them? Rework/Reedit it? Repolish it? Is there a "diamond in the rough here"? There could be money in it to entice them, to allow this to be done? And we could get another film of our Purple One?!?

i know someone who was acquiring the 2 1/2 hr version...but this was soooo long ago..dont know if it ever materialized

2 1/2 hours! Really?
